Richard Crocker

As his retirement project, Richard recorded himself singing the entire early (tenth-century) repertory of Gregorian chant. Richard, also Hunter Hensley, Rachel Carson, and Adeline Mueller (Berkeley PhD in music), each singing solo, sang and recorded some 600 chants (all Roman Mass Propers) of the early repertory of Gregorian Chant, with close attention to the “nuance” notation of the earliest sources, as available in the Graduale Triplex (Solesmes 1979) and studied in the most recent research. Recorded as “A Gregorian Archive,” these performances can all be heard on Richard’s website, www.richardlcrocker.com
